Looking for some words of wisdom on camera suggestions.
Carry conditions:
-fires....all types (structural, grass, vehicle)
-police...vehicle, foot, bike patrols
-all weather conditions, with "water resistant" a minimum
needs to be highly mobile
needs to be operated while using bulky gloves
ideally would have enclosed lenses
wide angle abilities prefered over zoom, but macro is high on preferred list
currently i'm using the old Nikon 4500 and it has survived everything except complete immersion in water, and i'll keep using it until it dies. But others are looking for carry cameras that can take the abuse. Price is variable and i realize "you get what you pay for". Hopefully there are others who are using such "punting" cameras that have shown they are durable as well as functional and carry-able.
Thanks in advance and hope to hear from lots of you.
